Advisory

Posted by: Don in Administrative, Real life adventures

My left ankle, early Wednesday afternoon.

Project 365 is on hold while my ankle heals. Posting here in general will probably be sporadic until I can get around more easily.

Wednesday evening.

   Owwwww.

   I think I’m seeing one plate (with pins) and two screws, but I’m not sure what the horizontal piece does… Does it all stay in permanently?

   There are nine screws and one plate. Six of the screws hold the plate in place; two anchor the other broken bone, and the long screw holds the ligaments in position. I don’t know whether the hardware eventually comes out. The hospital staff may have been exceptionally pleasant and helpful, but it was still very hard to find out anything.

   Yeouch! Did this have anything to do with getting away from that scary-looking spider whose pic you snapped?

   No. I slipped on ice.
